let me describe you what i did:

1) Opened the word file that contains the footer i want.
2) Pressed Alt+F11, and choose the file from left panel.
3) From "Insert UseForm" icon, i choose module.
4) I paste the code you wrote here.
5) I pressed F5.
6) Opened a popup window to choose the folder i want and i choose it.
7) After pressing OK button from popup window i get the error i told you.

Ok an update...
I put the file that has the footer i need outside the folder i want the word files to be changed (i put it in my desktop because it was inside the folder i wanted to work with). I run the macro again and now i get another error:

Run-time error '91:
Object variable or With block variable not set.

When i press debug i got the following line with yellow background:

With .Sections.First.Footers(wdHeaderFooterPrimary).Ran ge
